I've been tying most of my streamers w/ either red blended or tied in @ the throat or I draw in a cut & gills w/a red marker. Haven't done that w/ dries much except for poppers & packed hair bugs. It does seem to make a difference. J

I sat next to Aron Jasper at a show 2 years ago when he was just coming up with competition flies, and he raved about hot spots, so I took his advise and adapted some patterns. This year we did less fishing trips, but did well when we got out. Peggy On 8/21/2011 5:27 PM, Don Ordes wrote: > I tie a blood-spot on some of mine.
